Section 104. Acts of Holders.


 


(a)      Any request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced
by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by agent duly appointed in writing.
If, but only if, Securities of a series are issuable as Bearer Securities, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders of Securities of such series may, alternatively,
be embodied in and evidenced by the record of Holders of Securities of such series voting in favor thereof, either in person or
by proxies duly appointed in writing, at any meeting of Holders of Securities of such series duly called and held in accordance
with the provisions of Article Fourteen, or a combination of such instruments and any such record. Except as herein otherwise expressly
provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments or record or both are delivered to the Trustee
and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company. Such instrument or instruments and any such record (and the action
embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Holders signing such instrument
or instruments and so voting at any such meeting. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such
agent, or of the holding by any Person of a Security, shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section
315 of the Trust Indenture Act) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company and any agent of the Trustee or the Company,
if made in the manner provided in this Section. The record of any meeting of Holders of Securities shall be proved in the manner
provided in Section 1406.


 


Without limiting the generality of this Section
104, unless otherwise established in or pursuant to a Board Resolution or set forth or determined in an Officers’ Certificate,
or established in one or more indentures supplemental hereto, pursuant to Section 301, a Holder, including a U.S. Depository that
is a Holder of a global Security, may make, give or take, by a proxy, or proxies, duly appointed in writing, any request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided in this Indenture to be made, given or taken by Holders,
and a U.S. Depository that is a Holder of a global Security may provide its proxy or proxies to the beneficial owners of interests
in any such global Security through such U.S. Depository’s standing instructions and customary practices.


 


The Trustee shall fix a record date, which shall
be not more than 30 days prior to the first solicitation of such Holders, for the purpose of determining the Persons who are beneficial
owners of interest in any permanent global Security held by a U.S. Depository entitled under the procedures of such U.S. Depository
to make, give or take, by a proxy or proxies duly appointed in writing, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or other action provided in this Indenture to be made, given or taken by Holders. If such a record date is fixed,
the Holders on such record date or their duly appointed proxy or proxies, and only such Persons, shall be entitled to make, give
or take such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, whether or not such Holders remain
Holders after such record date. No such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action shall
be valid or effective if made, given or taken more than 90 days after such record date.


 


(b)      The fact and date of the execution by
any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved in any reasonable manner which the Trustee deems sufficient and in accordance
with such reasonable rules as the Trustee may determine; and the Trustee may in any instance require further proof with respect
to any of the matters referred to in this Section.


 


(c)      The ownership, principal amount and serial
numbers of Registered Securities held by any Person, and the date of the commencement and the date of termination of holding the
same, shall be proved by the Security Register.


 






    	 	10	 



     

    

(d)      The ownership, principal amount and serial
numbers of Bearer Securities held by any Person, and the date of the commencement and the date of termination of holding the same,
may be proved by the production of such Bearer Securities or by a certificate executed, as depositary, by any Bank, banker or other
depositary reasonably acceptable to the Company, wherever situated, if such certificate shall be deemed by the Trustee to be satisfactory,
showing that at the date therein mentioned such Person had on deposit with such depositary, or exhibited to it, the Bearer Securities
therein described; or such facts may be proved by the certificate or affidavit of the Person holding such Bearer Securities, if
such certificate or affidavit is deemed by the Trustee to be satisfactory. The Trustee and the Company may assume that such ownership
of any Bearer Security continues until (1) another certificate or affidavit bearing a later date issued in respect of the same
Bearer Security is produced, or (2) such Bearer Security is produced to the Trustee by some other Person, or (3) such Bearer Security
is surrendered in exchange for a Registered Security, or (4) such Bearer Security is no longer Outstanding. The principal amount
and serial numbers of Bearer Securities held by the Person so executing such instrument or writing and the date of the commencement
and the date of termination of holding the same may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee deems sufficient.


 


(e)      If the Company shall solicit from the
Holders of any Registered Securities any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, the Company
may at its option, by Board Resolutions, fix in advance a record date, which shall be not more than 30 days prior to the first
solicitation of such Holders, for the determination of Holders of Registered Securities entitled to give such request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, but the Company shall have no obligation to do so. If such a record
date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act may be given before or after
such record date, but only the Holders of Registered Securities of record at the close of business on such record date shall be
deemed to be Holders for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of Outstanding Securities have
authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and
for that purpose the Outstanding Securities shall be computed as of such record date; provided no such authorization, agreement
or consent of the Holders of Registered Securities shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions
of this Indenture not later than six months after the record date.


 


(f)      Any request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent, waiver or other action by the Holder of any Security shall bind every future Holder of the same Security and the
Holder of every Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect
of anything done or suffered to be done by the Trustee, any Security Registrar, any Paying Agent or the Company in reliance thereon,
whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Security.


 


Section 105. Notices, Etc., to Trustee and
Company.


 


Any request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent, waiver or Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished
to, or filed with,


 


(1)      the Trustee by any Holder or by the Company
shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Trustee at its Corporate
Trust Office, or


 


(2)      the Company by the Trustee or by any
Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class
postage prepaid, to the Company addressed to the attention of its Treasurer at the address of its principal office specified in
the first paragraph of this Indenture or at any other address previously furnished in writing to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee
by the Company.


 


Section 106. Notice to Holders; Waiver.


 


Except as otherwise expressly provided herein
or in any Security, where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event,


 






    	 	11	 



     

    

(1)      such notice shall be sufficiently given
to Holders of Registered Securities if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder of a Registered Security
affected by such event, at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier
than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such Notice; and


 


(2)      such notice shall be sufficiently given
to Holders of Bearer Securities, if any, if published in an Authorized Newspaper and, if such Securities are then listed on any
stock exchange outside the United States, in an Authorized Newspaper in such city as the Company shall advise the Trustee that
such stock exchange so requires, on a Business Day at least twice, the first such publication to be not earlier than the earliest
date and not later than the latest date prescribed for the giving of such notice.


 


In any case where notice to Holders of Registered
Securities is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular
Holder of a Registered Security shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders of Registered Securities
or the sufficiency of any notice to Holders of Bearer Securities given as provided herein. Any notice which is mailed in the manner
herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given or provided. In the case by reason of the suspension of
regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail, then such notification
as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder.


 


In case by reason of the suspension of publication
of any Authorized Newspaper or Authorized Newspapers or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to publish any notice
to Holders of Bearer Securities as provided above, then such notification to Holders of Bearer Securities as shall be given with
the approval of the Trustee shall constitute sufficient notice to such Holders for every purpose hereunder. Neither failure to
give notice by publication to Holders of Bearer Securities as provided above, nor any defect in any notice so published, shall
affect the sufficiency of any notice mailed to Holders of Registered Securities as provided above.


 


Where this Indenture provides for notice in
any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event,
and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such
filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.


 


Section 107. Language of Notices.


 


Any request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent, election or waiver required or permitted under this Indenture shall be in the English language, except that, if
the Company so elects, any published notice may be in an official language of the country of publication.


 


Section 108. Conflict With Trust Indenture
Act.


 


If any provision hereof limits, qualifies or
conflicts with the duties imposed pursuant to Section 318(c) of the Trust Indenture Act, such imposed duties shall control.


 


Section 109. Effect of Headings and Table
of Contents.


 


The Article and Section headings herein and
the Table of Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.


 


Section 110. Successors and Assigns.


 


All covenants and agreements in this Indenture
by the Company shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

Section 111. Separability Clause.


 


In case any provision in this Indenture, any
Security or any Coupon shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions
shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.


 


Section 112. Benefits Of Indenture.


 


Nothing in this Indenture, any Security or any
Coupon, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto, any Security Registrar, any Paying Agent and
their successors hereunder and the Holders of Securities or Coupon, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim
under this Indenture.


 


Section 113. Governing Law.


 


This Indenture, the Securities and the Coupons
shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made or instruments
entered into and, in each case, performed in said state.


 


Section 114. Legal Holidays.


 


In any case where any Interest Payment Date,
Redemption Date or Stated Maturity of any Security, or the last day on which a Holder has the right to convert these Securities,
is not a Business Day at any Place of Payment, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, any Security or Coupon
other than a provision in any Security or any Coupon that specifically states that such provision shall apply in lieu of this Section)
payment of interest or any Additional Amounts or principal (and premium, if any) or conversion of the Securities need not be made
at such Place of Payment on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day at such Place of Payment with the same
force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date, or at the Stated Maturity, or the last such day of
conversion, and no interest shall accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption

or other indices), and, if so, the terms and conditions upon which and the manner in which such amounts shall be determined and
paid or payable;

such Securities to be authenticated and delivered;

		(24)	any other terms of the Securities of the series or any of them.



 


All Securities of any one series and Coupons
appertaining to Bearer Securities of such series, if any, shall be substantially identical except as to denomination and the rate
or rates of interest, if any, and Stated Maturity, the date from which interest, if any, shall accrue and except as may otherwise
be provided by the Company in or pursuant to one or more Board Resolutions and set forth in such Officers’ Certificate or
in any indenture or indentures supplemental hereto pertaining to such series of Securities. All Securities of any one series need
not be issued at the same time and, unless otherwise so provided by the Company, a series may be reopened for issuances of additional
Securities of such series.


 


If any of the terms of the Securities of any
series were established by action taken by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, the Board Resolution shall be delivered to the Trustee

Unless otherwise established with respect to
any Securities pursuant to Section 301, the Registered Securities of each series, if any, denominated in Dollars shall be issuable
in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof, and the Bearer Securities of each
series, if any, denominated in Dollars shall be issuable in the denomination of $1,000. Securities not denominated in Dollars shall
be issuable in such denominations as are established with respect to such Securities pursuant to Section 301.


 






    	 	17	 



     

    

Section 303. Securities in Foreign Countries


 


Whenever this Indenture provides for (i) any
action by, or the determination of any of the rights of, Holders of Securities of any series in which not all of such Securities
are denominated in the same currency, or (ii) any distribution to Holders of Securities, in the absence of any provision to the
contrary in the form of Security of any particular series, any amount in respect of any Security denominated in a currency other
than United States dollars shall be treated for any such action or distribution as that amount of United States dollars that could
be obtained for such amount on such reasonable basis of exchange and as of the record date with respect to Registered Securities
of such series (if any) for such action, determination of rights or distribution (or, if there shall be no applicable record date,
such other date reasonably proximate to the date of such action, determination of rights or distribution) as the Company may specify
in a written notice to the Trustee or, in the absence of such written notice, as the Trustee may determine.


 


Section 304. Execution, Authentication, Delivery
and Dating.


 


The Securities and any Coupons appertaining
thereto shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman of the Board, Deputy Chairman, one of its Vice Chairmen, its
President or one of its Vice Presidents under its corporate seal reproduced thereon and attested by its Secretary or one of its
Assistant Secretaries. The signature of any of these officers on the Securities and any Coupons appertaining thereto may be manual
or facsimile.


 


Securities and Coupons bearing the manual or
facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding
that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Securities
or did not hold such offices at the date of such Securities.


 


At any time and from time to time after the
execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities of any series, together with any Coupons appertaining
thereto, executed by the Company, to the Trustee for authentication, and, provided that the Board Resolution or Resolutions and
Officers’ Certificate or supplemental indenture or indentures with respect to such Securities referred to in Section 301
and a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities, has been delivered to the Trustee, the Trustee in accordance
with the Company Order and subject to the provisions hereof of such Securities shall authenticate and deliver such Securities.
In authenticating such Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities
and any Coupons appertaining thereto, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Sections 315(a) through 315(b)
of the Trust Indenture Act) shall be fully protected in relying upon,


 


(1)      an Opinion of Counsel stating, to the
effect


 


		(A)	that the form or forms and terms of such Securities and Coupons, if any, have been established in conformity with the provisions
of this Indenture;



 






    	 	18	 



     

    

 


		(B)	that all conditions precedent to the authentication and delivery of such Securities and Coupons, if any, appertaining thereto,
have been complied with and that such Securities, and Coupons, when completed by appropriate insertion and executed and delivered
by the Company to the Trustee for authentication pursuant to this Indenture, and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and
issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute legally
valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’
rights generally, and subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity
or at law) and will entitle the Holders thereof to the benefits of the Indenture; such Opinion of Counsel need express no opinion
as to the availability of equitable remedies;



 


		(C)	that all laws and requirements in respect of the execution and delivery by the Company of such Securities and Coupons, if any,
have been complied with; and



 


		(D)	as to such other matters as the Trustee may reasonably request; and



 


(2)      an Officers’ Certificate stating
that, to the best knowledge of the Persons executing such certificate, no Event of Default with respect to any of the Securities
shall have occurred and be continuing.


 


If all the Securities of any series are not
to be issued at one time, it shall not be necessary to deliver an Opinion of Counsel and an Officers’ Certificate at the
time of issuance of each Security, but such opinion and certificate, with appropriate modifications to cover future issuances,
shall be delivered at or before the time of issuance of the first Security of such series.


 


The Trustee shall not be required to authenticate
or to cause an Authenticating Agent to authenticate any Securities if the issue of such Securities pursuant to this Indenture will
affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner which
is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee or if the Trustee, being advised by counsel, determines that such action may not lawfully
be taken or if the Trustee in good faith shall determine that such action would expose the Trustee to personal liability to existing
Holders.


 


Each Registered Security shall be dated the
date of its authentication. Each Bearer Security and any temporary Bearer Security in global form shall be dated as of the date
specified as contemplated by Section 301.


 


No Security or Coupon shall be entitled to any
benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose, unless there appears on such Security a certificate of
authentication substantially in the form provided for in Section 202 or 611 executed by or on behalf of the Trustee by the manual
signature of one of its authorized officers, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only
evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. Except as permitted by Section 307 or 308, the
Trustee shall not authenticate and deliver any Bearer Security unless all appurtenant Coupons for interest then matured have been
detached and cancelled.


 


Section 305. Temporary Securities.


 


Pending the preparation of definitive Securities
of any series, the Company may execute and deliver to the Trustee and, upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver,
in the manner provided in Section 304, temporary Securities of such series which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed
or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which
they are issued, in registered form or, if authorized, in bearer form with one or more Coupons or without Coupons and with such
appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers of the Company executing such Securities
may determine, as conclusively evidenced by their execution of such Securities. In the case of Securities of any series, such temporary
Securities may be in global form.


 






    	 	19	 



     

    

Except in the case of temporary Securities in
global form, which shall be exchanged in accordance with the provisions thereof, if temporary Securities of any series are issued,
the Company shall cause definitive Securities of such series to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of
definitive Securities of any series, the temporary Securities of such series, if any, shall be exchangeable upon request for definitive
Securities of such series containing identical terms and provisions upon surrender of the temporary Securities of such series at
an office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 1002, without charge to any Holder. Upon surrender
for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities of any series (accompanied by any unmatured Coupons appertaining thereto),
the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive
Securities of authorized denominations of the same series containing identical terms and provisions; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no
definitive Bearer Security, except as provided pursuant to Section 301, shall be delivered in exchange for a temporary Registered
Security; and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that a definitive Bearer Security shall be delivered in exchange for a temporary Bearer Security
only in compliance with the conditions set forth herein or therein. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 with
respect to a temporary global Security, until so exchanged the temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects be entitled
to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series.


 


Section 306. Registration, Transfer and Exchange.


 


With respect to the Registered Securities of
each series, if any, the Company shall cause to be kept, at an office or agency of the Company maintained pursuant to Section 1002,
a register (each such register being herein sometimes referred to as the “Security Register”) in which, subject to
such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of the Registered Securities of
each series and of transfers of the Registered Securities of such series. In the event that the Trustee shall not be the Security
Registrar, it shall have the right to examine the Security Register at all reasonable times. [Carolina Financial Corporation] is
hereby initially appointed as Security Registrar for each series of Securities. In the event that [Carolina Financial Corporation]
shall cease to be Security Registrar with respect to a series of Securities, the Trustee shall have the right to examine the Security
Register for such series at all reasonable times.


 


Upon surrender for registration of transfer
of any Registered Security of any series at any office or agency of the Company maintained for such series pursuant to Section
1002, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees,
one or more new Registered Securities of the same series of any authorized denominations, of a like aggregate principal amount
bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding and containing identical terms and provisions.


 


At the option of the Holder, Registered Securities
of any series may be exchanged for other Registered Securities of the same series containing identical terms and provisions, in
any authorized denominations, and of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at any
such office or agency. Whenever any Registered Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver, the Registered Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.


 


If specified as contemplated by Section 301
with respect to Securities of any series, at the option of the Holder, Bearer Securities of such series may be exchanged for Registered
Securities of such series containing identical terms and provisions, of any authorized denominations and aggregate principal amount,
upon surrender of the Bearer Securities to be exchanged at any such office or agency for such series, with all unmatured Coupons
and all matured Coupons in default thereto appertaining. If the Holder of a Bearer Security is unable to produce any such unmatured
Coupon or Coupons or matured Coupon or Coupons in default, such exchange may be effected if the Bearer Securities are accompanied
by payment in funds acceptable to the Company and the Trustee in an amount equal to the face amount of such missing Coupon or Coupons,
or the surrender of such missing Coupon or Coupons may be waived by the Company and the Trustee if there is furnished to them such
Security or indemnity as they may require to save each of them and any Paying Agent harmless. If thereafter the Holder of such
Security shall surrender to any Paying Agent any such missing Coupon in respect of which such a payment shall have been made, such
Holder shall be entitled to receive the amount of such payment; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that, except as otherwise provided in Section
1002, interest represented by Coupons shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of those Coupons at an office or agency
for such series located outside the United States. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in case a Bearer Security of any series is surrendered
at any such office or agency in exchange for a Registered Security of such series and like tenor after the close of business at
such office or agency on (i) any Regular Record Date and before the opening of business at such office or agency on the relevant
Interest Payment Date, or (ii) any Special Record Date and before the opening of business at such office or agency on the related
date for payment of Defaulted Interest, such Bearer Security shall be surrendered without the Coupon relating to such Interest
Payment Date or proposed date of payment, as the case may be (or, if such Coupon is so surrendered with such Bearer Security, such
Coupon shall be returned to the person so surrendering the Bearer Security), and interest or Defaulted Interest, as the case may
be, will not be payable on such Interest Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, in respect of the Registered
Security issued in exchange for such Bearer Security, but will be payable only to the Holder of such Coupon when due in accordance
with the provisions of this Indenture.


 






    	 	20	 



     

    

If specified as contemplated by Section 301
with respect to Securities of any series, at the option of the Holder, Registered Securities of such series may be exchanged for
Bearer Securities upon such terms and conditions as may be provided pursuant hereto with respect to such series.


 


Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for
exchange as contemplated by the immediately preceding two paragraphs, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate
and deliver, the Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.


 


Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as otherwise
specified as contemplated by Section 301, any global Security of any series shall be exchangeable for Securities of such series
only if (i) the Securities Depository is at any time unwilling or unable or ineligible to continue as Securities Depository and
a successor depository is not appointed by the Company within 90 days of the date the Company is so notified in writing, (ii) the
Company executes and delivers to the Trustee a Company Order to the effect that such global Security shall be so exchangeable,
or (iii) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Securities. If the beneficial owners of interests
in a global Security are entitled to exchange such interests for Securities of such series and of like tenor and principal amount
of any authorized form and denomination, as specified as contemplated by Section 301, then without unnecessary delay but in any
event not later than the earliest date on which such interests may be so exchanged, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee definitive
Securities of that series in aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such global Security, executed by the
Company. On or after the earliest date on which such interests may be so exchanged, such global Security shall be surrendered from
time to time by the U.S. Depository or such other depository as shall be specified in the Company Order with respect thereto, and
in accordance with instructions given to the Trustee and the U.S. Depository or such other depository, as the case may be (which
instructions shall be in writing but need not comply with Section 102 or be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel), as shall be
specified in the Company Order with respect thereto to the Trustee, as the Company’s agent for such purpose, to be exchanged,
in whole or in part, for definitive Securities of the same series without charge. The Trustee shall authenticate and make available
for delivery, in exchange for each portion of such surrendered global Security, a like aggregate principal amount of definitive
Securities of the same series of authorized denominations and of like tenor as the portion of such global Security to be exchanged
which (unless the Securities of such series are not issuable both as Bearer Securities and as Registered Securities, in which case
the definitive Securities exchanged for the global Security shall be issuable only in the form in which the Securities are issuable,
as specified as contemplated by Section 301) shall be in the form of Bearer Securities or Registered Securities, or any combination
thereof, as shall be specified by the beneficial owner thereof; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no such exchanges may occur during a period
beginning at the opening of business 15 days before any selection of Securities of such series to be redeemed and ending on the
relevant Redemption Date; and provided, further, that (unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301) no Bearer Security
delivered in exchange for a portion of a global Security shall be mailed or otherwise delivered to any location in the United States.
Promptly following any such exchange in part, such global Security shall be returned by the Trustee to such Depository or the U.S.
Depository, as the case may be, or such other Depository or U.S. Depository referred to above in accordance with the instructions
of the Company referred to above. If a Registered Security is issued in exchange for any portion of a global Security after the
close of business at the office or agency where such exchange occurs on (i) any Regular Record Date and before the opening of business
at such office or agency on the relevant Interest Payment Date, or (ii) any Special Record Date and before the opening of business
at such office or agency on the related proposed date for payment of interest or Defaulted Interest, as the case may be, interest
will not be payable on such Interest Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, in respect of such Registered
Security, but will be payable on such Interest Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, only to the Person
to whom interest in respect of such portion of such global Security is payable in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.


 






    	 	21	 



     

    

All Securities endorsed thereon issued upon
any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company evidencing the same debt,
and entitling the Holders thereof to the same benefits under this Indenture as the Securities surrendered upon such registration
of transfer or exchange.


 


Every Registered Security presented or surrendered
for registration of transfer or for exchange, redemption or conversion shall (if so required by the Company or the Security Registrar
for such series of Security presented) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory
to the Company and such Security Registrar duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.


 


No service charge shall be made for any registration
of transfer or exchange, redemption or conversion of Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover
any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities,
other than exchanges pursuant to Section 305, 906 or 1107 not involving any transfer.


 


Except as otherwise specified as contemplated
by Section 301, the Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Securities of any series
during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the selection for redemption of Securities of such
series under Section 1103 and ending at the close of business on the day of such selection, or (ii) to register the transfer of
or exchange any Registered Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except in the case of any Security to be redeemed
in part, the portion thereof not to be redeemed, or (iii) to exchange any Bearer Security so selected for redemption except, to
the extent provided with respect to such Security, that such a Bearer Security may be exchanged for a Registered Security of that
series, provided that such Registered Security shall be immediately surrendered for redemption with written instruction for payment
consistent with the provisions of this Indenture or (iv) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Security which, in
accordance with its terms specified as contemplated by Section 301, has been surrendered for repayment at the option of the Holder,
except the portion, if any, of such Security not to be repaid.


 


Section 307. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and
Stolen Securities.


 


If any mutilated Security or a Security with
a mutilated Coupon appertaining to it is surrendered to the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 307, the Company
shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Security of the same series containing
identical terms and of like principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding, with Coupons corresponding
to the Coupons, if any, appertaining to the surrendered Security.


 


If there be delivered to the Company and to
the Trustee (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security or Coupon, and (ii) such Security
or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of
notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security or Coupon has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall
execute and upon its request the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed,
lost or stolen Security or in exchange for the Security to which a destroyed, lost or stolen Coupon appertains with all appurtenant
Coupons not destroyed, lost or stolen, a new Security of the same series containing identical terms and of like principal amount
and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding, with Coupons corresponding to the Coupons, if any, appertaining to such
destroyed, lost or stolen Security or to the Security to which such destroyed, lost or stolen Coupon appertains.


 






    	 	22	 



     

    

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of
this Section 307, in case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security or Coupon has become or is about to become due
and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security or Coupon; PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
that payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and any interest on Bearer Securities shall, except as otherwise provided in
Section 1002, be payable only at an office or agency located outside the United States and, unless otherwise specified as contemplated
by Section 301, any interest on Bearer Securities shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of the Coupons appertaining
thereto.


 


Upon the issuance of any new Security under
this Section, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be
imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.


 


Every new Security of any series, with its Coupons,
if any, issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security and its Coupons, if any, or the destroyed,
lost or stolen Coupon shall constitute a separate obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security
and its Coupons, if any, or the destroyed, lost or stolen Coupon shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled
to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities of that series and their Coupons,
if any.


 


The provisions of this Section are exclusive
and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Securities or Coupons.


 


Section 308. Payment of Interest; Interest
Rights Preserved.


 


Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by
Section 301, interest on any Registered Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest
Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered as of
the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest. In case a Bearer Security of any series is surrendered in exchange
for a Registered Security of such series after the close of business (at an office or agency in a Place of Payment for such series)
on any Regular Record Date and before the opening of business (at such office or agency) on the next succeeding Interest Payment
Date, such Bearer Security shall be surrendered without the Coupon relating to such Interest Payment Date and interest will not
be payable on such Interest Payment Date in respect of the Registered Security issued in exchange of such Bearer Security, but
will be payable only to the Holder of such Coupon when due in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.


 


Any interest on any Registered Security of any
series which shall be payable, but shall not be punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date for such Registered
Security (herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant Regular
Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder; and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each
case, as provided in Clause (1) or (2) below:


 






    	 	23	 



     

    

(1)      The Company may elect to make payment
of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Registered Securities affected (or their respective Predecessor Securities)
are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed
in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid
on each such Registered Security and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the
Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make
arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit on or prior to the date of the proposed payment. Money will be held in
trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this Clause provided. Thereupon, the Trustee shall
fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10
days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the
proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense
of the Company shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be
mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder of such Registered Securities at his address as it appears in the Security
Register not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and
the Special Record Date therefor having been mailed as aforesaid, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose
names such Registered Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on such Special
Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following Clause (2). In case a Bearer Security of any series is surrendered
at the office or agency in a Place of Payment for such series in exchange for a Registered Security of such series after the close
of business at such office or agency on any Special Record Date and before the opening of business at such office or agency on
the related proposed date for payment of Defaulted Interest, such Bearer Security shall be surrendered without the Coupon relating
to such proposed date of payment and Defaulted Interest will not be payable on such proposed date of payment in respect of the
Registered Security issued in exchange for such Bearer Security, but will be payable only to the Holder of such Coupon when due
in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.


 


(2)      The Company may make payment of any Defaulted
Interest in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any Securities exchange on which such Securities
may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of
the proposed payment pursuant to this Clause, such payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.


 


At the option of the Company, interest on Registered
Securities of any series that bear interest may be paid by mailing a check to the address of the person entitled thereto as such
address shall appear in the Security Register.


 


Subject to the foregoing provisions of this
Section and Section 306, each Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in
lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other
Security.


 


Section 309. Persons Deemed Owners.


 


Prior to due presentment of a Registered Security
for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose
name such Registered Security is registered as the owner of such Registered Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal
of (and premium, if any), and (subject to Sections 306 and 308) interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to, such Registered
Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not any payment with respect to such Registered Security be overdue,
and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.


 


The Company, the Trustee and any agent of the
Company or the Trustee may treat the bearer of any Bearer Security and the bearer of any Coupon as the absolute owner of such Security
or Coupon for the purpose of receiving payment thereof or on account thereof and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or
not any payment with respect to such Security or Coupon be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company
or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.


 






    	 	24	 



     

    

Section 310. Cancellation.


 


All Securities and Coupons surrendered for payment,
redemption, registration of transfer or exchange or for credit against any sinking fund payment shall, if surrendered to any Person
other than the Trustee or the Security Registrar, be delivered to the Trustee or the Security Registrar, and any such Securities
and Coupons and Securities and Coupons surrendered directly to the Trustee or the Security Registrar for any such purpose shall
be promptly cancelled by the Trustee or the Security Registrar, as the case may be. The Company may at any time deliver to the
Trustee or the Security Registrar for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company
may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee or the Security
Registrar, as the case may be. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled as provided
in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture or as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301. All
cancelled Securities and Coupons held by the Trustee or the Security Registrar shall be returned to the Company by the Trustee
or the Security Registrar, as the case may be, upon a Company Order. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of all cancelled
Securities.


 


Section 311. Computation of Interest.

by Section 301 for Securities of any series, interest on the Securities of each series shall be computed on the basis of 360-day
year of twelve 30-day months.


 


Section 312. Cusip Numbers.


 


The Company in issuing the Securities may use
“CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use), and if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers in notices
of redemption as a convenience to Holders; PROVIDED that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness
of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed
only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect
in or omission of such numbers. The Company will promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the “CUSIP” numbers.

in the name, and at the expense, of the Company,



 


and the Company, in the case of (i), (ii) or (iii) above,
has deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for the purpose, lawful money of the United States
Government Obligations which through the payment of interest and principal or other amounts in respect thereof in accordance with
their terms will provide not later than the opening of business on the due dates of any payment of principal (and premium, if any)
and interest, or any Additional Amounts with respect thereto, or a combination thereof, in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge
the entire indebtedness on such Securities and Coupons not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal

hereunder.


 


Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge
of this Indenture, the obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Section 606 and, if money shall have been deposited with
the Trustee pursuant to subclause (B) of Clause (1) of this Section, the obligations of the Trustee under Section 402 and the last

Section 402. Application of Trust Money.


 


Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph
of Section 1003, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 401 or this section 402 shall be held in trust and applied

through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled
thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) and any interest or any Additional Amounts for whose payment such money has been
deposited with the Trustee; but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

any Additional Amounts, and interest to the Stated Maturity or any Redemption Date as contemplated by the penultimate paragraph
of this Section 403, as the case may be; or



 


		(ii)	with respect to any Series of Securities which are denominated in United States dollars, the Company has deposited or caused
to be deposited with the Trustee, as obligations in trust for such purpose, such amount of direct obligations of, or obligations
the timely payment of the principal of and interest on which are fully guaranteed by, the United States of America and which are
not callable at the option of the issuer thereof as will, together with the income to accrue thereon without consideration of any
reinvestment thereof, be sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on all Outstanding Securities of such series for
principal (and premium, if any), any Additional Amounts, and interest to the stated Maturity or any Redemption Date as contemplated
by the penultimate paragraph of this Section 403; or



 


		(B)	the Company has properly fulfilled such other means of satisfaction and discharge as is specified, as contemplated by Section

of Counsel, each such Certificate and opinion stating that no Event of Default or event which with notice or lapse of time or both
would become an Event of Default with respect to such Securities shall have occurred and all conditions precedent herein provided
for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of the entire indebtedness on all Outstanding Securities of any such series have
been complied with; and

		(A)	a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service or an opinion of independent counsel that the holders of the Securities of such
series will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit, defeasance and discharge
and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amount and in the same manner and at the same times, as would have been the
case if such deposit, defeasance and discharge had not occurred; and



 


		(B)	if the Securities of such series are then listed on the Nasdaq Global Market, an Opinion of Counsel that the Securities of
such series will not be delisted as a result of the exercise of this option.



 


Any deposits with the Trustee referred to in
subsection (1) (A) of this Section shall be irrevocable and shall be made under the terms of an escrow trust agreement in form
and substance satisfactory to the Trustee. If any Outstanding Securities of such series are to be redeemed prior to their Stated
Maturity, whether pursuant to any optional redemption or repayment provisions or in accordance with any mandatory sinking fund
requirement, the Company shall make such arrangements as are satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption
by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company.


 


Upon the satisfaction of the conditions set
forth in this Section 403 with respect to all the Outstanding Securities of any series, the terms and conditions of such series,
including the terms and conditions with respect thereto set forth in this Indenture, other than the provisions of Sections 306,
307, and 1002, other than the right of Holders of Securities and any Coupons of such series to receive, from the trust fund described
in this Section, payment of the principal (and premium, if any) of, the interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to such
Securities and Coupons (if any) appertaining thereto when such payments are due, other than any right of conversion of such Securities
and the rights, powers, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder, shall no longer be binding upon, or applicable to, the
Company except those responsibilities and obligations which by the terms of the Indenture survive the termination of the Indenture;
PROVIDED that the Company shall not be discharged from any payment obligations in respect of Securities of such series which are
deemed not to be Outstanding under clause (iii) of the definition thereof if such obligations continue to be valid obligations
of the Company under applicable law.


 


ARTICLE FIVE


 


REMEDIES


 


Section 501. Events of Default.


 


“Event of Default”, wherever used
herein with respect to Securities of any series, means any one of the following events (whatever the reason for such Event of Default
and whether it shall be voluntary or be effected by operation of law pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or
any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body):


 


(1)      a court having jurisdiction in the premises
shall enter a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company or the Subsidiary Bank in an involuntary case under any applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, and adjudging it a bankrupt or insolvent or appointing
a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator (or similar official) of the Company or the Subsidiary Bank
or for any substantial part of its property, or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, and such decree or order
shall remain unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 consecutive days; or


 






    	 	28	 



     

    

(2)      the Company or the Subsidiary Bank shall
commence a voluntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or shall
consent to the entry of an order for relief in any involuntary case under any such law, or shall consent to the appointment of
or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator (or similar official) of the Company
or the Subsidiary Bank or for any substantial part of its property, or shall make any general assignment for the benefit of creditors,
or shall fail generally to pay its debts as they become due or shall take any corporate action in furtherance of any of the foregoing.


 


If an Event of Default with respect to Securities
of any series occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights
of the Holders of Securities of such series and any related Coupons by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall
deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in
this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy.


 


Section 502. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission
and Annulment.


 


If an Event of Default with respect to Securities
of any series at the time outstanding occurs and is continuing, then the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal
amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series may declare the principal of all the Securities of that series, or such lesser
amount as may be provided for in the Securities of that series, to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the
Company (and to the Trustee if given by the Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal or such lesser amount shall
become immediately due and payable.


 


At any time after such a declaration of acceleration
with respect to Securities of any series has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained
by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of that series, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences
if


 


(1)      the Company has paid or deposited with
the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay


 


		(A)	all overdue installments of interest on and any Additional Amounts payable in respect of all Securities of such series,



 


		(B)	the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Securities of such series which have become due otherwise than by such declaration
of acceleration and interest thereon at the rate or rates borne by or provided for in such Securities,



 


		(C)	to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue installments of interest or any Additional Amounts
at the rate or rates borne by or provided for in such Securities, and



 


		(D)	all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of
the Trustee, its agents and counsel as provided in Section 606 hereof; and



 






    	 	29	 



     

    

 


		(2)	all Events of Default with respect to Securities of such series, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 513.



 


No such rescission shall affect any subsequent
default or impair any right consequent thereon.


 


Section 503. Collection of Indebtedness and
Suits For Enforcement By Trustee.


 


The Company covenants that if


 


		(1)	default is made in the payment of any installment of interest on or any Additional Amounts payable in respect of any Security
when such interest or Additional Amounts shall have become due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days,
or



 


		(2)	default is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any Security at its Maturity,



 


then the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for
the benefit of the Holders of such Securities and any Coupons appertaining thereto, the whole amount then due and payable on such
Securities and Coupons for principal (and premium, if any) and interest or Additional Amounts, if any, with interest upon the overdue
principal (and premium, if any) and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, upon overdue installments
of interest or any Additional Amounts, at the rate or rates borne by or provided for in such Securities, and, in addition thereto,
such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.


 


If the Company fails to pay such amounts forthwith
upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the
collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same
against the Company or any other obligor upon such Securities and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner
provided by law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon such Securities, wherever situated.


 


If an Event of Default with respect to Securities
of any series occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights
of the Holders of Securities of such series and any Coupons appertaining thereto by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the
Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant
or agreement in this Indenture or such Securities or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other
proper remedy.


 


Section 504. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.


 


In case of the pendency of any receivership,
insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative
to the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities or the property of the Company or of such other obligor or their creditors,
the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration
or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Company for the payment of any overdue principal
or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise,


 


		(1)	to file and prove a claim for the whole amount or such lesser amount as may be provided for in the Securities of such series,
of principal (and premium, if any) and interest and any Additional Amounts owing and unpaid in respect of the Securities and any
Coupons appertaining thereto and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims
of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents
or counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and



 






    	 	30	 



     

    

 


		(2)	to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;



 


and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator
or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder of Securities or Coupons to make
such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders
of Securities or Coupons, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 606.


 


Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to
authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder of a Security or Coupon any plan of
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or Coupons or the rights of any Holder thereof,
or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder of a Security or Coupon in any such proceeding.


 


Section 505. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without
Possession of Securities or Coupons.


 


All rights of action and claims under this Indenture
or any of the Securities or coupons may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities
or Coupons or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall
be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery or judgment, after provision for the payment of the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, shall be for the ratable
benefit of the Holders of the Security and Coupon in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.


 


Section 506. Application of Money Collected.


 


Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant
to this Article shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution
of such money on account of principal (and premium, if any), interest or any Additional Amounts, upon presentation of the Securities
or Coupons, or both, as the case may be, and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof
if fully paid:


 


		FIRST:	To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee under Section 606;



 


		SECOND:	To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid upon the Securities and Coupons for principal (and premium, if any) and interest
or any Additional Amounts payable in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without
preference or priority of any kind, according to the aggregate amounts due and payable on such Securities and Coupons for principal
(and premium, if any), interest or any Additional Amounts, respectively;



 


		THIRD:	The balance, if any, to the Company.



 


Section 507. Limitation on Suits.


 


No Holder of any Security of any series or any
related Coupons shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for
the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless


 






    	 	31	 



     

    

 


		(1)	such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities
of such series;



 


		(2)	the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series shall have made written request
to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder;



 


		(3)	such Holder or Holders have offered indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities
to be incurred in compliance with such request;



 


		(4)	the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding;
and



 


		(5)	no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders
of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series;



 


it being understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders
shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture or any Security to
affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other such Holders or Holders of Securities of any other series, or to obtain or
to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner
herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all such Holders.


 


Section 508. Unconditional Right of Holders
to Receive Principal, Premium, Interest and Additional Amounts.


 


Notwithstanding any other provision in this
Indenture, the Holder of any Security or coupon shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of
the principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Sections 306 and 308) interest on or any Additional Amounts in respect of
such Security or payment of such Coupon on the respective Stated Maturity or Maturities specified in such Security or Coupon (or,
in the case of redemption, on the Redemption Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such right
shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.


 


Section 509. Restoration of Rights and Remedies.


 


If the Trustee or any Holder of a Security or
Coupon has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued
or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case the
Company, the Trustee and each such Holder shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding, be restored severally and respectively
to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and each such Holder shall continue
as though no such proceeding had been instituted.


 


Section 510. Rights and Remedies Cumulative.


 


Except as otherwise provided with respect to
the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities or Coupons in the last paragraph of Section 307,
no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders of a Security or Coupon is intended to be
exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy, to the extent permitted by law, shall be cumulative and in
addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion
or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other
appropriate right or remedy.


 






    	 	32	 



     

    

Section 511. Delay or Omission Not Waiver.


 


No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any
Holder of any Security or coupon to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right
or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this
Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders of Securities or Coupons may be exercised from time to time, and as often as
may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders of Securities or Coupons, as the case may be.


 


Section 512. Control By Holders.


 


The Holders of a majority in principal amount
of the Outstanding Securities of any series shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding
for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Securities
of such series and any Coupons appertaining thereto, PROVIDED that


 


		(1)	such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture,



 


		(2)	the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction, and



 


		(3)	such direction is not unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders of Securities of such series.



  


Section 513. Waiver of Past Defaults.


 


The Holders of not less than a majority in principal
amount of the outstanding Securities of any series may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such Series and any Coupons
appertaining thereto waive any past default hereunder with respect to such series and its consequences, except a default


 


		(1)	in the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on or Additional Amounts payable in respect of any Security
of such series or any Coupons appertaining thereto, or



 


		(2)	in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article Nine cannot be modified or amended without the consent of
the Holder of each Outstanding Security of such series affected.



 


Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease
to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture; but
no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon.


 


Section 514. Waiver of Stay or Extension
Laws.


 


The Company covenants (to the extent that it
may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or
advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants
or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit
or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to
the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on, or any Additional Amounts with respect to, any Security of such series or
in the payment of any sinking fund installment with respect to Securities of such series, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding

and Coupons of such series.


 


Section 602. Certain Rights of Trustee.

acquire any conflicting interest, as defined in Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act, with respect to the Securities of any
series, the Trustee shall take such action as is required pursuant to said Section 310(b).


 


Section 608. Resignation and Removal; Appointment
of Successor.


 


(a)      No resignation or removal of the Trustee
and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by
the successor Trustee pursuant to Section 609.


 






    	 	36	 



     

    

(b)      The Trustee may resign at any time with
respect to the Securities of one or more series by giving written notice thereof to the Company. If the instrument of acceptance
by a successor Trustee required by Section 609 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of
such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition, at the expense of the Company, any court of competent jurisdiction
for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to such series.


 


(c)      The Trustee may be removed at any time
with respect to the Securities of any series by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities
of such series, delivered to the Trustee and the Company. If an instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee shall not have

written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder of a Security who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least

or by any such Holder of a Security, or

its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs
for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,



 


then, in any such case, (a) the Company, by or pursuant to Board
Resolution, may remove the Trustee with respect to all Securities, or (b) subject to Section 315(c) of the Trust Indenture Act
any Holder of a Security who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of any series for at least six months may, on behalf of
himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect
to all Securities of such series and the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees.


 


(e)      If the Trustee shall resign, be removed
or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, with respect to the Securities
of one or more series, the Company, by or pursuant to Board Resolutions, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees
with respect to the Securities of that or those series (it being understood that any such successor Trustee may be appointed with
respect to the Securities of one or more or all of such series and that at any time there shall be only one Trustee with respect
to the Securities of any particular series) and shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 609. If, within one year
after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities
of any series shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such
series delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance
of such appointment in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 609, become the successor Trustee with respect to
the Securities of such series and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. If no successor Trustee
with respect to the Securities of any series shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders of Securities and accepted
appointment in the manner required by Section 609, any Holder of a Security who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of such
series for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction
for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series.

resignation and each removal of the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series and each appointment of a successor Trustee
with respect to the Securities of any series by mailing written notice of such event by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the
Holders of Registered Securities, if any, of such series as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register and, if Securities
of such series are issued as Bearer Securities, by publishing notice of such event once in an Authorized Newspaper in each Place
of Payment located outside the United States. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities

Successor.


 


(a)      In case of the appointment hereunder
of a successor Trustee with respect to all Securities, every such successor Trustee so appointed shall execute, acknowledge and
deliver to the Company and the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal
of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become
vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on the request of the Company and/or the successor
Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor
Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor
Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder, subject nevertheless to its claim, if any, provided for

of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all) series, the Company, the retiring Trustee and
each successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more series shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental
hereto wherein each successor Trustee shall accept such appointment and which (1) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary
or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the
retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates,
(2) if the retiring Trustee is not retiring with respect to all Securities, shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary
or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of
that or those series as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the retiring Trustee, and
(3) shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration
of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall
constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust, that each such Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder
separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee and that no Trustee shall be responsible
for any notice given to, or received by, or any act or failure to act on the part of any other Trustee hereunder, and upon the
execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective
to the extent provided therein, such retiring Trustee shall with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the
appointment of such successor Trustee relates have no further responsibility for the exercise of rights and powers or for the performance
of the duties and obligations vested in the Trustee under this Indenture other than as hereinafter expressly set forth, and each
such successor Trustee without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and
duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor
Trustee relates; but, on request of the Company or any successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and
deliver to such successor Trustee, to the extent contemplated by such supplemental indenture, the property and money held by such
retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee
relates.

the Company shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee
all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, as the case may be.

(d)      No successor Trustee shall accept its
appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under this Article.


 


Section 610. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation
or Succession to Business.


 


Any corporation into which the Trustee may be
merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation
to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business
of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible
under this Article, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In
case any Securities shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion
or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with
the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities.


 


Section 611. Appointment of Authenticating
Agent.


 


The Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent
or Authenticating Agents, which may be an Affiliate of the Company, with respect to one or more series of Securities which shall
be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of that or those series issued upon original issue or
exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption thereof or pursuant to Section 307, and Securities so authenticated shall
be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee
hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the
Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf
of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating
Agent.


 


Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable
to the Company and, except as specified as contemplated by Section 301, shall at all times be a corporation that would be permitted
by Section 310(a) (1) and (5) of the Trust Indenture Act to be able to act as a trustee under an indenture qualified under the
Trust Indenture Act, is authorized under applicable law and by its charter to act as such and that has a combined capital and surplus
(computed in accordance with Section 310(a) (2) of the Trust Indenture Act) of not less that $50,000,000. If at any time an Authenticating
Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately
in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section. If the Authenticating Agent has or shall acquire any conflicting interest,
as defined in Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act, with respect to the Securities of any series, the Authenticating Agent
shall take action as is required pursuant to said Section 310 (b).


 


Any corporation into which an Authenticating
Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion
or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate agency or
corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be an Authenticating Agent, provided such corporation shall
be otherwise eligible under this Section, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee
or the Authenticating Agent.


 


An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time
by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating
Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation
or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and
shall (i) mail written notice of such appointment by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to all Holders of Registered Securities,
if any, of the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent will serve, as their names and addresses appear in the Security
Register, and (ii) if Securities of the series are issued as Bearer Securities, publish notice of such appointment at least once
in an Authorized Newspaper in the place where such successor Authenticating Agent has its principal office if such office is located
outside the United States. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested
with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating
Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section.


 






    	 	39	 



     

    

The Company agrees to pay each Authenticating
Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services under this Section.


 


The provisions of Sections 309, 603 and 604
shall be applicable to each Authenticating Agent.


 


If an appointment with respect to one or more
series is made pursuant to this Section, the Securities of such series may have endorsed thereon, in addition to or in lieu of
the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternate certificate of authentication in the following form:


 


This certificate represents Securities of the
series designated herein referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture.


 





	 	Dated: [          ],	 
	 	not in its individual capacity but solely as Trustee	 
	 	 	 
	 	 	 
	 	 	 
	 	By:	 	 
	 	 	As Authenticating Agent	 
	 	 	 
	 	 	 
	 	 	 
	 	By:	 	 
	 	 	Authorized Signatory	 



 


If all of the Securities of any series may not
be originally issued at one time, and if the Trustee does not have an office capable of authenticating Securities upon original
issuance located in a Place of Payment where the Company wishes to have Securities of such series authenticated upon original issuance,
the Trustee, if so requested in writing (which writing need not comply with Section 102) by the Company, shall appoint in accordance
with this Section an Authenticating Agent having an office in a Place of Payment designated by the Company with respect to such
series of Securities.

of any such pre-existing series of any Security with respect to the application of such provision to such pre-existing series of
a Security or (ii) shall become effective only when there is no such pre-existing series of a Security outstanding.



 


Section 902. Supplemental Indentures With

of each Outstanding Security affected thereby, shall


 


		(1)	change the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any installment of interest on, any Security, or reduce the principal amount
thereof or the rate of interest thereon or any Additional Amounts payable in respect thereof, or any premium payable upon the redemption
thereof, or change the obligation of the Company to pay Additional Amounts pursuant to Section 1004 (except as contemplated by

a record date is fixed, the Holders on such record date, or their duly designated proxies, and only such Persons, shall be entitled
to consent to such supplemental indenture, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; PROVIDED, that unless
such consent shall have become effective by virtue of the requisite percentage having been obtained prior to the date which is
90 days after such record date, any such consent previously given shall automatically and without further action by any Holder
be cancelled and of no further effect.


 


A supplemental indenture which changes or eliminates
any covenant or other provision of this Indenture which has expressly been included solely for the benefit of one or more particular
series of Securities, or which modifies the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series with respect to such covenant or
other provision, shall be deemed not to affect the rights under this Indenture of the Holders of Securities of any other series.

of Securities under this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient
if such Act shall approve the substance thereof.

COVENANTS


 


Section 1001. Payment of Principal, Premium,
If Any, and Interest.


 


The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit
of the Holders of each series of Securities that it will duly and punctually pay the principal of (and premium, if any), interest
on or any Additional Amounts payable in respect of the Securities of that series in accordance with the terms of such series of
Securities, any Coupons appertaining thereto and this Indenture. Any interest due on and any Additional Amounts payable in respect
of Bearer Securities on or before Maturity, other than Additional Amounts, if any, payable as provided in Section 1004 in respect
of principal of (or premium, if any, on) such a Security, shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of the several
coupons for such interest installments as are evidenced thereby as they severally mature.


 


Section 1002. Maintenance of Office or Agency.


 


The Company will maintain in each Place of Payment
for any series of Securities an office or agency where Securities of such series (but not Bearer Securities, except as otherwise
provided below, unless such Place of Payment is located outside the United States) may be presented or surrendered for payment,
where Securities of that series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or
upon the Company in respect of the Securities of that series and this Indenture may be served. If Securities of a series are issuable
as Bearer Securities, the Company shall maintain, subject to any laws or regulations applicable thereto, an office or agency in
a Place of Payment for such series which is located outside the United States where Securities of such series and the related Coupons
may be presented and surrendered for payment (including payment of any Additional Amounts payable on Securities of such series
pursuant to Section 1004)      ; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if the Securities of such series are listed on The Stock Exchange of the
United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland or the Luxembourg Stock Exchange or any other stock exchange located outside the United
States and such stock exchange shall so require, the Company will maintain a Paying Agent in London, Luxembourg or any other required
city located outside the United States, as the case may be, so long as the Securities of such series are listed on such exchange.
The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency.
If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with
the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of
the Trustee, except that Bearer Securities of that series and the related Coupons may be presented and surrendered for payment
(including payment of any Additional Amounts payable on Bearer Securities of that series pursuant to Section 1004) at the place
specified for the purpose pursuant to Section 301, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such
presentations, surrenders, notices and demands.


 






    	 	46	 



     

    

Except as otherwise specified as contemplated
by Section 301, no payment of principal, premium or interest on Bearer Securities shall be made at any office or agency of the
Company in the United States or by check mailed to any address in the United States or by transfer to an account maintained with
a bank located in the United States; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, payment of principal of and any premium and interest in U.S. dollars (including
Additional Amounts payable in respect thereof) on any Bearer Security may be made at the Corporate Trust Office or any office or
agency designated by the Company if (but only if) payment of the full amount of such principal, premium, interest or Additional
Amounts at all offices outside the United States maintained for the purpose by the Company in accordance with this Indenture is
illegal or effectively precluded by exchange controls or other similar restrictions.


 


The Company may also from time to time designate
one or more other offices or agencies where the Securities of one or more series may be presented or surrendered for any or all
such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no such designation or rescission shall
in any manner relieve the Company of their obligation to maintain an office or agency in each Place of Payment for Securities of
any series for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission
and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301,
the Company hereby designates as the Place of Payment for each series the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee. Pursuant to Section
301(9) of this Indenture, the Company may subsequently appoint a place or places where such Securities may be payable.


 


Section 1003. Money For Securities Payments
to Be Held in Trust.


 


If the Company shall at any time act as its
own Paying Agent with respect to any series of Securities, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of (and premium,
if any), or interest on, any of the Securities of that series, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Person entitled
thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to
such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided, and will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act.


 


Whenever the Company shall have one or more
Paying Agents for any series of Securities, it will, on or prior to each due date of the principal of (and premium, if any), or
interest on, any Securities of that series, deposit with any Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if
any) or interest so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such principal, premium
or interest, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure
so to act.


 


The Company will cause each Paying Agent for
any series of Securities other than the Trustee to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent
shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent will:


 


		(1)	hold all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on Securities of that series
in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of
as herein provided;



 


		(2)	give the Trustee notice of any default by the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities of that series) in the making
of any payment of principal (and premium, if any) or interest on the Securities of that series; and



 


		(3)	at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee
all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent.



 






    	 	47	 



     

    

 


The Company may at any time, for the purpose
of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Company Order direct any Paying
Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon
the same terms as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying
Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money.


 


Except as otherwise provided hereby or pursuant
hereto, any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the
principal of (and premium, if any) or interest and Additional Amounts on any Security of any series and remaining unclaimed for
two years after such principal (and premium, if any) or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on Company
Request, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security or any Coupon appertaining
thereto shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of
the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon
cease; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense
of the Company cause to be published once, in an Authorized Newspaper in each Place of Payment for such series or to be mailed
to Holders of Registered Securities for such series, or both, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified
therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication or mailing nor shall it be later than two years
after such principal (and premium, if any) or interest has become due and payable, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining
will be repaid to the Company.


 


Section 1004. Additional Amounts.


 


If any Securities of a series provide for the
payment of Additional Amounts, the Company agrees to pay to the Holder of any such Security of any such series or any Coupon appertaining
thereto Additional Amounts as provided therein. Whenever in this Indenture there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of the
principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on, or in respect of, any Security of any series or any related Coupon or the net
proceeds received on the sale or exchange of any Security of any series, such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the
payment of Additional Amounts provided by the terms of such series established hereby or pursuant hereto to the extent that, in
such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof pursuant to such terms and express mention of
the payment of Additional Amounts (if applicable) in any provisions hereof shall not be construed as excluding Additional Amounts
in those provisions hereof where such express mention is not made.


 


Except as otherwise provided herein or pursuant
hereto, if the Securities of a series provide for the Payment of Additional Amounts, at least 10 days prior to the first Interest
Payment Date with respect to such series of Securities (or if the Securities of that series shall not bear interest prior to Maturity,
the first day on which a payment of principal (and premium, if any, is made), and at least 10 days prior to each date of payment
of principal (and premium, if any) or interest if there has been any change with respect to the matters set forth in the below-mentioned
Officers’ Certificate, the Company will furnish the Trustee and the principal Paying Agent or Paying Agents, if other than
the Trustee, an Officers’ Certificate instructing the Trustee and such Paying Agent or Paying Agents whether such payment
of principal (and premium, if any) of or interest on the Securities of that series shall be made to Holders of Securities of that
series or the Coupons appertaining thereto who are United States Aliens without withholding for or on account of any tax, assessment
or other governmental charge described in the Securities of that series. If any such withholding shall be required, then such Officers’
Certificate shall specify by country the amount, if any, required to be withheld on such payments to such Holders of Securities
or Coupons and the Company agrees to pay to the Trustee or such Paying Agent the Additional Amounts required by this Section. The
Company covenants to indemnify the Trustee and any Paying Agent for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss, liability or
expense reasonably incurred without negligence or bad faith on their part arising out of or in connection with actions taken or
omitted by any of them in reliance on any Officers’ Certificate furnished pursuant to this Section.

upon the Company or any Subsidiary or upon the income, profits or property of the Company or any Subsidiary, and (2) all lawful
claims for labor, materials and supplies which, if unpaid, might by law become a lien upon the property of the Company or any subsidiary;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company shall not be required to pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged any such tax, assessment,
charge or claim whose amount, applicability or validity is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings.

shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries
considered as a whole and that the loss thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders.


 


Section 1008. Waiver of Certain Covenants.


 


The Company may omit in any particular instance
to comply with any term, provision or condition set forth in Section 1006 with respect to the Securities of any series if before
the time for such compliance the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series
shall, by Act of such Holders, either waive such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such term, provision
or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such term, provision or condition except to the extent so expressly
waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of the Trustee in respect
of any such term, provision or condition shall remain in full force and effect.

ARTICLE ELEVEN


 


REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES


 


Section 1101. Applicability of Article.


 


Redemption of Securities of any series at the
option of the Company as permitted or required by the terms of such Securities shall be made in accordance with the terms of such
Securities and (except as otherwise provided herein or pursuant hereto) this Article.


 


Section 1102. Election To Redeem; Notice
To Trustee.


 


The election of the Company to redeem any Securities
shall be evidenced by Board Resolution. In case of any redemption at the election of the Company of the Securities of any series,
with the same issue date, interest rate and Stated Maturity, the Company shall, at least 60 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed
by the Company (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date and of
the principal amount of Securities of such series to be redeemed.


 


Section 1103. Selection By Trustee of Securities
To Be Redeemed.


 


If less than all the Securities of any series
with the same issue date, interest rate, Stated Maturity and other terms are to be redeemed, the particular Securities to be redeemed
shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee from the Outstanding Securities of such series
not previously called for redemption, by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for the
selection for redemption of portions of the principal amount of Registered Securities of such series; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no
such partial redemption shall reduce the portion of the principal amount of a Registered Security of such series not redeemed to
less than the minimum denomination for a Security of such series established herein pursuant hereto.


 


If any Convertible Security selected for partial
redemption is converted in part before termination of the conversion right with respect to the portion of the Security so selected,
the converted portion of such Security shall be deemed (so far as may be) to be the portion selected for redemption. Securities
which have been converted during a selection of Securities to be redeemed shall be treated by the Trustee as Outstanding for the
purpose of such selection.


 


The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company
and the Security Registrar (if other than itself) in writing of the Securities selected for redemption and, in the case of any
Securities selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.


 


For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the
context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities shall relate, in the case of any Securities
redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal of such Securities which has been or is to be redeemed.

Section 1104. Notice of Redemption.


 


Notice of redemption shall be given in the manner
provided in Section 106, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, unless a shorter period is specified
in the Securities to be redeemed, to the Holders of Securities to be redeemed. Failure to give notice by mailing in the manner
herein provided to the Holder of any Registered Securities designated for redemption as a whole or in part, or any defect in the
notice to any such Holder, shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Securities or portion
thereof.


 


Any notice that is mailed to the Holder of any
Registered Securities in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not such
Holder receives the notice.


 


All notices of redemption shall state:


 


		(1)	the Redemption Date,



 


		(2)	the Redemption Price,



 


		(3)	if less than all outstanding Securities of any series are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption,
the principal amount) of the particular Securities to be redeemed,



 


		(4)	in case any Registered Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice which relates to such Security shall state that
on and after the Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Security, the Holder of such Security will receive, without charge, a
new Registered Security or Registered Securities of authorized denominations for the principal amount thereof remaining unredeemed,



 


		(5)	in the case of Convertible Securities, the Conversion Price then in effect, the date on which the right to convert the principal
amount of the Securities or the portions thereof to be redeemed will terminate and the place or places where such Securities may
be surrendered for conversion,



 


		(6)	that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each such Security to be redeemed only, as
to Bearer Securities, against tender of such Security and any Coupons appertaining thereto, and, if applicable, that interest thereon
and Additional Amounts, if any, shall cease to accrue on and after said date,



 


		(7)	the place or places where such Securities, together, in the case of Bearer Securities with all Coupons appertaining thereto,
if any, maturing after the Redemption Date, are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price,



 


		(8)	that the redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is the case, and



 


		(9)	the CUSIP number, if any.



 


A notice of redemption published as contemplated
by Section 106 need not identify particular Registered Securities to be redeemed.


 


Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed
at the election of the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company’s request, by the Trustee in the name and
at the expense of the Company.


 


Section 1105. Deposit of Redemption Price.


 


On or prior to any Redemption Date, the Company
shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold
in trust as provided in Section 1003) an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption
Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued interest on and any Additional Amounts with respect thereto, all the Securities
or portions thereof which are to be redeemed on that date.


 






    	 	51	 



     

    

If any Convertible Security or portion thereof
called for redemption is converted pursuant to Article Fifteen, any money deposited with the Trustee or so segregated and held
in trust for the redemption of such Security or portion thereof shall (subject to any right of the Holder of the Security on a
Regular Record Date preceding such conversion to receive interest) be paid to the Company upon Company Request or, if then held
by the Company, shall be discharged from such trust.


 


Section 1106. Securities Payable on Redemption
Date.


 


Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid,
the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified,
and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such
Securities shall cease to bear interest and the Coupons for such interest appertaining to any Bearer Securities so to be redeemed,
except to the extent provided below, shall be void. Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance with said
notice, together with all Coupons, if any, appertaining thereto maturing after the Redemption Date, such Security shall be paid
by the Company at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest (or any Additional Amounts) to the Redemption Date; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that installments of interest on Bearer Securities whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be
payable only upon presentation and surrender of coupons for such interest (at an office or agency located outside the United States
except as otherwise provided in Section 1002), and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that installments of interest on Registered Securities whose
Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor
Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the Regular Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions
of Section 308.


 


If any Bearer Security surrendered for redemption
shall not be accompanied by all appurtenant Coupons maturing after the Redemption Date, such Security may be paid after deducting
from the Redemption Price an amount equal to the face amount of all such missing Coupons, or the surrender of such missing Coupon
or Coupons may be waived by the Company and the Trustee if there be furnished to them such Security or indemnity as they may require
to save each of them and any Paying Agent harmless. If thereafter the Holder of such Security shall surrender to the Trustee or
any Paying Agent any such missing coupon in respect of which a deduction shall have been made from the Redemption Price, such Holder
shall be entitled to receive the amount so deducted; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that interest (or any Additional Amounts) represented by
Coupons shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of those Coupons at an office or agency located outside of the United
States except as otherwise provided in Section 1002.


 


If any Security called for redemption shall
not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal (and premium, if any) shall, until paid, bear interest from
the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed therefor in the Security.


 


Section 1107. Securities Redeemed in Part.


 


Any Registered Security which is to be redeemed
only in part shall be surrendered at any office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose pursuant to Section 1002 (with,
if the Company or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing) and the Company shall
execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security without service charge, a new Registered
Security or Securities of the same series, containing identical terms and provisions, of any authorized denomination as requested
by such Holder in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security
so surrendered. If a Security in global form is so surrendered, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver to the U.S. Depository or other depository for such Security in global form as shall be specified in the Company Order
with respect thereto to the Trustee, without service charge, a new Security in global form in a denomination equal to and in exchange
for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security in global form so surrendered.

Section 1108. Conversion Arrangements on
Call for Redemption.


 


Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in this Indenture, in connection with any redemption of Convertible Securities of any series, the Company, by an agreement with
one or more investment bankers or other purchasers, may arrange for such purchasers to purchase all such Convertible Securities
called for redemption (the “Called Securities”) which are either (i) surrendered for redemption or (ii) not duly surrendered
for redemption or conversion prior to the close of business on the Redemption Date, and to convert the same into shares of Common
Stock, by the purchasers’ depositing with the Trustee (acting as Paying Agent with respect to the deposit of such amount
and as conversion agent with respect to the conversion of such Called Securities), in trust for the Holders of the Called Securities,
on or prior to the Redemption Date in the manner agreed to by the Company and such purchasers, an amount sufficient to pay the
Redemption Price, payable by the Company on redemption of such Called Securities. In connection with any such arrangement for purchase
and conversion, the Trustee as Paying Agent shall pay on or after the Redemption Date such amounts so deposited by the purchasers
in exchange for Called Securities surrendered for redemption prior to the close of business on the Redemption Date and for all
Called Securities surrendered after such Redemption Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article Eleven,
the obligation of the Company to pay the Redemption Price of such Called Securities shall be satisfied and discharged to the extent
such amount is so paid by such purchasers. However, nothing in this Section 1108 shall in any way relieve the Company of the obligation
to pay such Redemption Price on all Called Securities to the extent such amount is not so paid by said purchasers. For all purposes
of this Indenture, any Called Securities surrendered by the Holders for redemption, and any Called Securities not duly surrendered
for redemption or conversion prior to the close of business on the Redemption Date, shall be deemed acquired by such purchasers
from such Holders and surrendered by such purchasers for conversion and shall in all respects be deemed to have been converted,
all as of immediately prior to the close of business on the Redemption Date, subject to the deposit by the Purchasers of the above
amount as aforesaid. Nothing in this Section 1108 shall in any way limit the right of any Holder of a Security to convert his Security
pursuant to the terms of this Indenture and of such Security at any time prior to the close of business on the Redemption Date
applicable thereto.

The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment
provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as a “mandatory sinking fund payment”,
and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided for by the terms of Securities of such series is herein referred to as
an “optional sinking fund payment”. If provided for by the terms of Securities of any series, the cash amount of any

Section 1202. Satisfaction of Sinking Fund
Payments With Securities.


 


The Company may, in satisfaction of all or any
part of any sinking fund payment with respect to the Securities of such series to be made pursuant to the terms of such Securities
as provided for by the terms of such series (1) deliver Outstanding Securities of such series (other than any of such Securities
previously called for redemption or any of such Securities in respect of which cash shall have been released to the Company), together
in the case of any Bearer Securities of such series with all unmatured Coupons appertaining thereto, and (2) apply as a credit
Securities of such series which have been redeemed either at the election of the Company pursuant to the terms of such series of
Securities or through the application of permitted optional sinking fund payments pursuant to the terms of such Securities, PROVIDED
that such series of Securities have not been previously so credited. Such Securities shall be received and credited for such purpose
by the Trustee at the Redemption Price specified in such Securities for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the
amount of such sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly. If as a result of the delivery or credit of Securities of any
series in lieu of cash payments pursuant to this Section 1202, the principal amount of Securities of such series to be redeemed
in order to exhaust the aforesaid cash payment shall be less than $100,000, the Trustee need not call Securities of such series
for redemption, except upon Company Request, and such cash payment shall be held by the Trustee or a Paying Agent and applied to
the next succeeding sinking fund payment, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent shall at the request of the
Company from time to time pay over and deliver to the Company any cash payment so being held by the Trustee or such Paying Agent
upon delivery by the Company to the Trustee of Securities of that series purchased by the Company having an unpaid principal amount
equal to the cash payment requested to be released to the Company.


 


Section 1203. Redemption of Securities For
Sinking Fund.


 


Not less than 75 days prior to each sinking
fund payment date for any series of Securities, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate specifying
the amount of the next ensuing mandatory sinking fund payment for that series pursuant to the terms of that series, the portion
thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by payment of cash and the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by delivering
and crediting of Securities of that series pursuant to Section 1202, and the optional amount, if any, to be added in cash to the
next ensuing mandatory sinking fund payment, and will also deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so credited and not theretofore
delivered. If such Officers’ Certificate shall specify an optional amount to be added in cash to the next ensuing mandatory
sinking fund payment, the Company shall thereupon be obligated to pay the amount therein specified. Not less than 60 days before
each such sinking fund payment date the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date
in the manner specified in Section 1103 and cause notice of the redemption thereof to be given in the name of and at the expense
of the Company in the manner provided in Section 1104. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall
be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 1106 and 1107.


 


ARTICLE THIRTEEN


 


REPAYMENT AT THE OPTION OF HOLDERS


 


Section 1301. Applicability of Article.


 


Securities of any series which are repayable
at the option of the Holders thereof before their Stated Maturity shall be repaid in accordance with the terms of the Securities
of such series. The repayment of any principal amount of Securities pursuant to such option of the Holder to require repayment
of Securities before their Stated Maturity, for purposes of Section 310, shall not operate as a payment, redemption or satisfaction
of the indebtedness represented by such Securities unless and until the Company, at its option, shall deliver or surrender the
same to the Trustee with a directive that such Securities be cancelled. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Article Thirteen, in connection with any repayment of Securities, the Company may arrange for the purchase of any Securities by
an agreement with one or more investment bankers or other purchasers to purchase such Securities by paying to the Holders of such
Securities on or before the close of business on the repayment date an amount not less than the repayment price payable by the
Company on repayment of such Securities, and the obligation of the Company to pay the repayment price of such Securities shall
be satisfied and discharged to the extent such payment is so paid by such purchasers.

SUBORDINATION


 


Section 1501. Securities Subordinated To
Senior Indebtedness.


 


The Company covenants and agrees, and each Holder
of Securities, by its acceptance thereof, likewise covenants and agrees, that the indebtedness evidenced by the Securities and
the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on and any Additional Amounts payable in respect thereof is
hereby expressly subordinated, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, in right of payment to the prior payment
in full of Senior Indebtedness.


 


Anything in this Indenture or in the Securities
of any series to the contrary notwithstanding, the indebtedness evidenced by the Securities shall be subordinate and junior in
right of payment, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, to all Senior Indebtedness:


 


		(1)	In the event of any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings, and any receivership, liquidation, reorganization, arrangement or
other similar proceedings in connection therewith, relative to the Company or to its property, and in the event of any proceedings
for voluntary liquidation, dissolution or other winding-up of the Company, whether or not involving insolvency or bankruptcy, then
the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled to receive payment in full of all principal, premium and interest on all Senior
Indebtedness before the Holders of the Securities are entitled to receive any payment on account of principal, premium, if any,
interest or Additional Amounts upon the Securities, and to that end (but subject to the power of a court of competent jurisdiction
to make other equitable provisions reflecting the rights conferred in the Securities upon Senior Indebtedness and the Holders thereof
with respect to the subordinated indebtedness represented by the Securities and the Holders hereof by a lawful plan of reorganization
under applicable bankruptcy law) the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled to receive for application in payment thereof
any payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash or property or securities, which may be payable or deliverable
in any such proceedings in respect of the Securities after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution in respect of
such Senior Indebtedness, except securities which are subordinate and junior in right of payment to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness
then outstanding;



 






    	 	57	 



     

    

 


		(2)	In the event that any Security of any series is declared or otherwise becomes due and payable before its expressed maturity
because of the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder (under circumstances when the provisions of the foregoing clause (1)
or the following clause (3) shall not be applicable), the holders of Senior Indebtedness outstanding at the time such Security
so becomes due and payable because of such occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder shall, so long as such declaration has not
been rescinded and annulled pursuant to Section 502, be entitled to receive payment in full of all principal of, and premium and
interest on, all such Senior Indebtedness before the Holders of the Securities of such series are entitled to receive any payment
on account of principal of, premium, if any, or interest and Additional Amounts on the Securities of such series. However, nothing
herein shall prevent the Holders of Securities from seeking any remedy allowed at law or at equity so long as any judgment or decree
obtained thereby makes provision for enforcing this clause; and



 


		(3)	In the event that any default shall occur and be continuing with respect to any Senior Indebtedness permitting the holders
of such Senior Indebtedness to accelerate the maturity thereof, if either



 


		(A)	notice of such default, in writing or by telegram, shall have been given to the Company and to the Trustee, provided that judicial
proceedings shall be commenced in respect of such default within 180 days in the case of a default in payment of principal or interest
and within 90 days in the case of any other default after the giving of such notice, and provided further that only one such notice
shall be given pursuant to this Section 1601(3) in any twelve months period, or



 


		(B)	judicial proceedings shall be pending in respect of such default, the Holders of the Securities and the Trustee for their benefit
shall not be entitled to receive any payment on account of principal, premium, if any, or interest and Additional Amounts thereon
(including any such payment which would cause such default) unless payment in full of all principal of, and premium and interest
on, such Senior Indebtedness shall have been made or provided for. The Trustee, forthwith upon receipt of any notice received by
it pursuant to this Section 1601(3), shall, as soon as practicable, send a notice thereof to each Holder of Securities at the time
outstanding as the names and addresses of such Holders appear on the Security Register.



 


In case despite the foregoing provisions, any
payment or distribution shall, in any such event, be paid or delivered to any Holder of the Securities or to the Trustee for their
benefit before all Senior Indebtedness shall have been paid in full, such payment or distribution shall be held in trust for and
so paid and delivered to the holders of Senior Indebtedness (or their duly authorized representatives) until all Senior Indebtedness
shall have been paid in full.


 


The Company shall give written notice to the
Trustee within five days after the occurrence of any insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation, reorganization, arrangement
or similar proceeding of the Company within the meaning of this Section 1601. Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the
Company referred to in this Article Fifteen, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 315(a) through 315(b) of the Trust
Indenture Act, and the Holders of the Securities shall be entitled to rely upon a certificate of the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver,
assignee for the benefit of creditors or other liquidating agent making such payment or distribution, delivered to the Trustee
or to the Holders of Securities, for the purpose of ascertaining the persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the
holders of the Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or
amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article Fifteen.


 






    	 	58	 



     

    

The Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively
rely on the delivery to it of a written notice by a person representing himself to be a holder of Senior Indebtedness (or a trustee
or agent on behalf of such holder) to establish that such notice has been given by a holder of Senior Indebtedness (or a trustee
or agent on behalf of any such holder). In the event that the Trustee determines, in good faith, that further evidence is required
with respect to the right of any person as a holder of Senior Indebtedness to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant
to this Section 1601, the Trustee may request such person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as
to the amount of Senior Indebtedness held by such person, as to the extent to which such person is entitled to participate in such
payment or distribution, and as to other facts pertinent to the rights of such person under this Section 1601, and if such evidence
is not furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment to such person pending judicial determination as to the right of such person
to receive such payment.

Subject to the payment in full of all Senior
Indebtedness to which the indebtedness evidenced by the Securities is in the circumstances subordinated as provided in Section
1601, the Holders of the Securities shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness to receive payments
or distributions of cash, property or securities of the Company applicable to such Senior Indebtedness until all amounts owing
on the Securities shall be paid in full. As between the Company, its creditors other than holders of such Senior Indebtedness,
and the Holders of the Securities, no such payment or distribution made to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness by virtue of
this Article Fifteen which otherwise would have been made to the Holders of the Securities shall be deemed to be a payment by the
Company on account of such Senior Indebtedness, it being understood that the provisions of this Article Fifteen are and are intended
solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Holders of the Securities on the one hand, and the holders of the
Senior Indebtedness, on the other hand.

for the benefit of creditors, liquidating trustee or agent or other person making any payment or distribution, delivered to the
Trustee or to the Holders of the Securities, for the purpose of ascertaining the persons entitled to participate in such payment
or distribution, the holders of the Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Company the amount thereof or payable thereon,
the amount paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article Fifteen.

elsewhere in this Indenture, or in any of the Securities, shall affect the obligation of the Company to make, or prevent the Company

Section 1506. Knowledge Of Trustee.


 


Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article
Fifteen or any other provisions of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts
which would prohibit the making of any payment of monies to or by the Trustee, or the taking of any other action by the Trustee,
unless and until the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof from the Company, any Holder of the Securities, any paying
agent of the Company or the holder or representative of any class of Senior Indebtedness.


 


Section 1507. Trustee’s Relation To
Senior Indebtedness.


 


Except as otherwise provided in the Trust Indenture
Act, the Trustee shall be entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article Fifteen with respect to any Senior Indebtedness
at the time held by it, to the same extent as any other holder of Senior Indebtedness, and nothing in this Indenture shall deprive
the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder. Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture or in the Securities of any series,
nothing in this Article Fifteen shall apply to or limit claims of or payment to the Trustee under or pursuant to Sections 506 and
606.


 


With respect to holders of Senior Indebtedness,
the Trustee undertakes to perform or to observe only such of its covenants and obligations as are specifically set forth in this
Article Fifteen, and no implied covenants or obligations with respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be read into
this Indenture against the Trustee. The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Indebtedness
and the Trustee shall not be liable to any holder of Senior Indebtedness if it shall pay over or deliver to Holders, the Company
or any other Person monies or assets to which any holder of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled by virtue of this Article Fifteen
or otherwise.


 


No recourse may be taken with respect to the
obligations of the Issuer or the Trustee against the Trustee in its individual capacity.

CONVERSION


 


Section 1601. Conversion Privilege.


 


Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions
of this Article Fifteen and the terms of the Convertible Securities of the series proposed to be converted, at the option of the
Holder, any Convertible Security or any portion of the principal amount thereof which is $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof,
may be converted into shares of Common Stock, as said shares shall be constituted at the Date of Conversion, at the Conversion
Price for such Convertible Securities of such series in effect at the Date of Conversion.


 


Section 1602. Manner of Exercise of Convertible
Privilege.


 


In order to exercise the conversion privilege,
the Holder of any Convertible Security to be converted shall surrender such Convertible Security to the Company at its office or
agency, together with the conversion notice in the form provided on the Securities (or separate written notice) duly executed,
and, if so required by the Company, accompanied by instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Company and to the Trustee,
duly executed by the Holder or by his duly authorized attorney in writing. Any Registered Convertible Security so surrendered during
the period from the close of business on the Regular Record Date preceding an Interest Payment Date for such Registered Convertible
Security to the opening of business on such Interest Payment Date shall (unless any such Registered Convertible Security or the
portion thereof being converted shall have been called for redemption on a Redemption Date during such period, in which event no
interest shall be payable with respect to such Registered Convertible Security or portion thereof, as the case may be, following
such Redemption Date) also be accompanied by payment in Clearing House funds or other funds acceptable to the Company of an amount
equal to the interest payable on such Interest Payment Date on the principal amount of such Registered Convertible Security then
being converted; provided, however, that no such payment need be made if there shall exist, at the time of conversion, a default
in the payment of interest on the Convertible Securities of such series. Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence,
no adjustment shall be made for interest accrued on any Convertible Security that shall be converted or for dividends on any shares
of Common Stock that shall be delivered upon the conversion of such Convertible Securities. The funds so delivered to such office
or agency shall be paid to the Company on or after such Interest Payment Date, unless the Company shall default in the payment
of the interest due on such Interest Payment Date, in which event such funds shall be repaid to the Person who delivered the same.
As promptly as practicable after the surrender of any Convertible Security for conversion as aforesaid, the Company shall deliver
at said office or agency to such Holder, or on his written order, a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares deliverable
upon the conversion of such Convertible Security or portion thereof and a check or cash in respect of any fraction of a share of
Common Stock otherwise deliverable upon such conversion, all as provided in this Article Fifteen, together with a Convertible Security
or Convertible Securities of the same series in principal amount equal to the unconverted and unredeemed portion, if any, of the
Convertible Security so converted in accordance with Section 306 hereof. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been effected
on the date on which such notice shall have been received at said office or agency and such Convertible Security shall have been
surrendered as aforesaid, and the Person or Persons in whose name or names any certificate or certificates for shares of Common
Stock shall be deliverable upon such conversion shall be deemed to have become on said date the Holder or Holders of record of
the shares represented thereby, provided, however, that any such surrender on any date when the stock transfer books of the Company
shall be closed shall constitute the Person or Persons in whose name or names the certificates are to be delivered as the record
Holder or Holders thereof for all purposes on the next succeeding day on which such stock transfer books are open, but such conversion
shall be at the Conversion Price in effect on the date of such surrender.


 






    	 	61	 



     

    

Section 1603. Cash Adjustment Upon Conversion.


 


The Company shall not be required to deliver
fractions of shares of Common Stock upon conversions of Convertible Securities. If more than one Convertible Security shall be
surrendered for conversion at one time by the same Holder, the number of full shares which shall be deliverable upon conversion
thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities so surrendered. If any fractional interest
in a share of Common Stock would be deliverable upon the conversion of any Convertible Security or Securities, the Company shall
make an adjustment therefor in cash equal to the current market value of such fractional interest computed to the nearest cent
either on the basis of the last reported sale price regular way of the Common Stock on the Nasdaq Global Market (or, if not listed
on the Nasdaq Global Market, then on such other exchange on which the shares of Common Stock are listed as the Company may designate)
on the last Business Day prior to the Date of Conversion or, if there shall not have been a sale on such last Business Day, on
the basis of the average of the bid and asked quotations therefor on such exchange on such last Business Day or, if the Common
Stock shall not then be listed on any exchange, at the highest bid quotation in the over-the- counter market on such last Business
Day as reported by the National Association of Securities Dealers through NASDAQ, its automated system for reporting quotes, or
its successor or such other generally accepted source of publicly reported bid and asked quotations as the Company may reasonably
designate.


 


Section 1604. Conversion Price.


 


The Conversion Price applicable to any series
of Convertible Securities shall be the initial Conversion Price set forth on the Officers’ Certificate or supplemental indenture
establishing such series adjusted as provided in this Article Fifteen.


 


Section 1605. Adjustment of Conversion Price.


 


The Conversion Price applicable to any series
of Convertible Securities shall be adjusted from time to time as follows:


 


(a)      In case the Company shall, at any time
or from time to time while the Securities of any series are outstanding, (i) pay a dividend on its Common Stock in shares of Common
Stock, (ii) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, or (iii) combine its outstanding Common
Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price for such series in effect immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted
so that the Holder of any Security of such series thereafter surrendered for conversion shall be entitled to receive the number
of shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company which he would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the
happening of any of the events described above, had such Convertible Security of such series been converted immediately prior to
the happening of such event. An adjustment made pursuant to this subdivision (a) shall become effective, in the case of a dividend,
on the payment date retroactively to immediately after the opening of business on the day following the record date for the determination
of shareholders entitled to receive such dividend, subject to the provisions of paragraph (g) of this Section 1605, and shall become
effective in the case of a subdivision or combination immediately after the opening of business on the day following the day when
such subdivision or combination, as the case may be, becomes effective.


 






    	 	62	 



     

    

(b)      In case the Company shall, at any time
or from time to time while the Convertible Securities of any series are outstanding, issue rights or warrants to all holders of
its shares of Common Stock entitling them (for a period expiring within 45 days of the record date mentioned below) to subscribe
for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share less than the current market price per share of Common Stock (as defined
in paragraph (d) below) at such record date, the Conversion Price of any series of Convertible Securities in effect immediately
prior to the issuance of such rights or warrants shall be adjusted as follows: the number of shares of Common Stock into which
$1,000 principal amount of Convertible Securities of such series was theretofore convertible shall be multiplied by a fraction,
of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such record date plus the
number of additional shares of Common Stock offered for subscription or purchase, and of which the denominator shall be the number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such record date plus the number of shares which the aggregate offering
price of the total number of shares so offered would purchase at such current market price; and the Conversion Price for such series
of Convertible Securities shall be adjusted by dividing $1,000 by the new number of shares into which $1,000 principal amount of
Securities of such series shall be convertible as aforesaid. Such adjustment shall become effective on the date of such issuance
retroactively to immediately after the opening of business on the day following the record date for the determination of shareholders
entitled to receive such rights or warrants, subject to the provisions of paragraph (g) of this Section 1605. In determining whether
any rights or warrants entitle the holders to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at less than such current market
price, and in determining the aggregate offering price of such shares, there shall be taken into account any consideration received
by the Company for such rights or warrants, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board
of Directors.


 


(c)      In case the Company shall, at any time
from time to time while the Convertible Securities of any series are outstanding, distribute to all holders of shares of its Common
Stock evidences of its indebtedness or securities or assets (excluding cash dividends or cash distributions payable out of consolidated
net earnings or retained earnings) or rights or warrants to subscribe for shares of Common Stock at a price per share less than
the current market price per share of Common Stock, determined in the manner set forth in paragraph (d) below, but excluding rights
or warrants referred to in paragraph (b) above, the Conversion Price for such series of Convertible Securities in effect immediately
prior to such distribution shall be adjusted by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock into which $1,000 principal amount
of Convertible Securities of such series of Convertible Securities was theretofore convertible by a fraction, of which the numerator
shall be the current market price per share of Common Stock (as defined in paragraph (d) below) on the record date for such distribution,
and of which the denominator shall be such current market price per share of the Common Stock, less the then fair market value
(as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company, whose determination shall be conclusive) of the portion of such evidences
of indebtedness, securities or assets or of such subscription rights or warrants so distributed applicable to one share of Common
Stock; and the Conversion Price for such series of Convertible Securities shall be adjusted by dividing $1,000 by the new number
of shares into which $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Securities of such series shall be convertible as aforesaid. Such adjustment
shall become effective on the date of such distribution retroactively to immediately after the opening of business on the day following
the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution, subject to the provisions of paragraph
(g) of this Section 1605. For the purposes of this paragraph (c) consolidated net earnings or retained earnings shall be computed
by adding thereto all charges against retained earnings on account of dividends paid in shares of Common Stock in respect of which
the Conversion Price has been adjusted, all as determined by Independent Public Accountants, whose determination shall be conclusive.


 


(d)      For the purpose of any computation under
paragraphs (b) and (c) above, the current market price per share of Common Stock at any date shall be deemed to be the average
of the market values of the shares of Common Stock for the ten consecutive Business Days immediately preceding the day in question.
The market value of the Common Stock for each day shall be determined as provided in Section 1603 hereof.


 


(e)      The Company may make such reductions
in the Conversion Price for any series of Convertible Securities, in addition to those required by paragraphs (a), (b) and (c)
of this Section as it considers to be advisable in order that any event treated for Federal income tax purposes as a dividend of
stock or stock rights shall not be taxable to the recipients.


 


(f)      Except as herein otherwise provided,
no adjustment in the Conversion Price for any series of Convertible Securities shall be made by reason of the issuance, in exchange
for cash, property or services, of shares of Common Stock, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common
Stock, or carrying the right to purchase any of the foregoing.


 






    	 	63	 



     

    

(g)      If the Company shall take a record of
the holders of its shares of Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive any dividend or any subscription or purchase
rights or any distribution and shall, thereafter and before the distribution to shareholders of any such dividend, subscription
or purchase rights or distribution, legally abandon its plan to pay or deliver such dividend, subscription or purchase rights or
distribution, then no adjustment of the Conversion Price for any series of Convertible Securities shall be required by reason of
the taking of such record.


 


(h)      No adjustment in the Conversion Price
for any series of Convertible Securities shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least
1% in such price; provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this paragraph (h) are not required to be made shall
be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. All calculations under this Article Fifteen shall be made
to the nearest cent or to the nearest one-hundredth of a share, as the case may be.


 


(i)      Whenever the Conversion Price for any
series of Convertible Securities is adjusted as herein provided, the Company shall (i) forthwith place on file at the Principal
Office of the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate showing in detail the facts requiring such adjustment and the Conversion Price
after such adjustment and shall exhibit the same from time to time to any Holder of Convertible Securities of such series desiring
an inspection thereof, and (ii) cause a notice stating that such adjustment has been effected and the adjusted Conversion Price
to be mailed to the Holders of Registered Convertible Securities of such series at their last addresses as they shall appear on
the Security Register.


 


(j)      The Company may delete, modify or vary
any of the provisions applicable to conversion of the Convertible Securities of any series, or may add new provisions applicable
thereto, all as may be contained in the Board Resolutions and Officers’ Certificate or supplemental indenture establishing
such series.


 


Section 1606. Effect of Reclassifications,
Consolidations, Mergers or Sales on Conversion Privilege.


 


In case of any reclassification or change of
outstanding shares of the class of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Securities (other than a change in
par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination),
or in case of any merger or consolidation of the Company with one or more other corporations (other than a merger or consolidation
in which the Company is the continuing corporation and which does not result in any reclassification or change of outstanding shares
of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Securities), or in case of the merger of the Company into another corporation,
or in case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation of the property of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an
entirety, the Holder of Convertible Securities then outstanding shall have the right to convert such Convertible Security into
the kind and amount of shares of capital stock or other securities and property, including cash, receivable upon such reclassification,
change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock into which such Convertible
Security might have been converted immediately prior to such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance.
In any such case the Company, or such successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, shall execute with the Trustee one
or more supplemental indentures (which shall conform to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 as in force at the date of the execution
of such supplemental indenture) containing provisions to the effect set forth above in this Section 1606 and providing further
for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Article Fifteen;
and any such adjustment which shall be approved by the Board of Directors and set forth in such supplemental indenture or supplemental
indentures shall be conclusive for all purposes of this Section, and the Trustee shall not be under any responsibility to determine
the correctness of any provision contained in such supplemental indenture or supplemental indentures relating to either the kind
or amount of shares of stock or securities or property receivable by Holders of Securities of any series upon the conversion of
their Convertible Securities after any such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance.


 






    	 	64	 



     

    

The above provisions of this Section 1606 shall
similarly apply to successive reclassifications, changes, consolidations, mergers, sales and conveyances.


 


Section 1607. Taxes on Conversions.


 


The issue of stock certificates on conversions
of Convertible Securities shall be made without charge to the converting Holder of Convertible Securities for any tax in respect
of the issue thereof. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer
involved in the issue and delivery of shares in any name other than that of the Holder of any Registered Convertible Security converted,
and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any such stock certificate unless and until the Person or Persons requesting
the issue thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company
that such tax has been paid.


 


Section 1608. Company to Reserve Common Stock.


 


The Company shall at all times reserve and keep
available out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued shares or its issued shares held in its treasury, or both, for the
purpose of effecting the conversion of the Securities, such number of its duly authorized shares of Common Stock as shall from
time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding Securities.


 


If any shares of Common Stock reserved or to
be reserved for the purpose of conversion of Securities hereunder require registration with or approval of any governmental authority
under any Federal or State law before such shares may be validly delivered upon conversion, then the Company covenants that it
will in good faith and as expeditiously as possible endeavor to secure registration or approval, as the case may be.


 


The Company covenants that all shares of Common
Stock which may be delivered upon conversion of Convertible Securities shall upon delivery be fully paid and nonassessable by the
Company and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue or delivery thereof.


 


Section 1609. Disclaimer by Trustee of Responsibility
for Certain Matters.


 


Neither the Trustee nor any conversion agent
shall at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holder of Convertible Securities of any series to determine whether
any facts exist which may require any adjustment of the Conversion Price for such series, or with respect to the nature or extent
of any such adjustment when made, or with respect to the method employed, or herein or in any supplemental indenture provided to
be employed, in making the same, subject, however, to the provisions of Sections 315(a) through 315(b) of the Trust Indenture Act.
Neither the Trustee nor any conversion agent shall be accountable with respect to the validity or value (or the kind or amount)
of any shares of Common Stock, or of any securities or property which may at any time be issued or delivered upon the conversion
of any Convertible Security; and neither of them makes any representation with respect thereto. Neither the Trustee nor any conversion
agent shall be responsible for any failure of the Company to make any cash payment or to issue, transfer or deliver any shares
of Common Stock or stock certificates or other securities or property upon the surrender of any Security for the purpose of conversion
or, subject to Sections 315(a) through 315(b) of the Trust Indenture Act, to comply with any of the covenants of the Company contained
in this Article Sixteen.


 


Section 1610. Company to Give Notice of Certain
Events.


 


In the event:


 


		(1)	that the Company shall pay any dividend or make any distribution to the holders of shares of Common Stock otherwise than in
cash charged against consolidated net earnings or retained earnings of the Company and its consolidated net earnings or retained
earnings of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries or in Common Stock; or



 






    	 	65	 



     

    

 


		(2)	that the Company shall offer for subscription or purchase, pro rata, to the holders of shares of Common Stock any additional
shares of stock of any class or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for stock of any class; or



 


		(3)	of any reclassification or change in outstanding shares of the class of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Securities
(other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision
or combination), or of any merger or consolidation of the Company with, or merger of the Company into, another corporation (other
than a merger or consolidation in which the Company is the continuing corporation and which does not result in any reclassification
or change of outstanding shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Securities), or of any sale or conveyance to another
corporation of the property of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety;



 


then, and in any one or more of such events, the Company will give
to the Trustee and each conversion agent written notice thereof at least fifteen days prior to (i) the record date fixed with respect
to any of the events specified in (1) and (2) above, and (ii) the effective date of any of the events specified in (3) above; and
shall mail promptly a copy of such notice to the Holders of Registered Convertible Securities at their last addresses as they shall
appear upon the Security Register. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity
of such dividend, distribution, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding up.
